After an author uprising that shook the Chinese publishing establishment, the editor of China's Science Fiction World has been fired. But some question whether it's too late to save the magazine, many of whose experienced editors have already quit. [Xinhua]

We reported last week that the editorial staff of China's Science Fiction World had published an open letter, signed by many of the country's top writers and tons of fans, calling for the departure of President and Chief Editor Li Chiang. And now their struggle has borne fruit.

China's main science fiction magazine, Kehuan Shijie (Science Fiction World), is facing a revolt from its best-known authors, because circulation dropped from 150,000 to 130,000. At least it's still got some gorgeous covers, as you can see below.
